Do the names of people in memoirs have to be changed? Couldn't anyone (a person in the memoir) essentially come out and say that you're lying just because they think what was written makes them look bad?

I want to know what's this poem about ? And what are the two major imageries ? and the poet's attitude towards love and death .cauz it's really confusing to me
"love wounds with heat as death with cold
so that I fear they do but bring extremes to touch,and mean one thing .
as in aruin we it call.One thing to be blown up or fall
Or to our end like way may have
by a flash of lightening or a wave
so love's inflamed shaft or brand
May kill as soon as Death's cold hand;
Except love's fires the virtue have
to fright the frost out of the grave ".

Like books that are set elsewhere. They mention places with familiarity, but we just have to use our imagination to picturise how it might be there.

I am wanting to make my own audio books from my own book collection (because I find the availability of free audio books that interest me or people my age to be severely lacking) and perhaps to make a website of my collection. Not to sell them but for free download.

I'm pretty sure I'm not allowed to do this... would this violate copyright laws; if they were distributed for free or even distributed at all?

I've heard of some websites who read "public domain" books (i.e. books published before 1923) but I really want to read out more recent books. Is there anyway I can do this legally or not?

Many thanks in advance.

The only one I can think of is Three Junes by Julia Glass, in which one of the characters has AIDS. I'm writing a creative story on the disease, and I need some inspiration.

If in the beginning of Hogwarts, each of the founders had their own students and those students belonged to their house, wouldn't all the students of the different houses each have their own technique in magic? Ex. Ravenclaw taught those of the sharp-minded, which meant that she took in the smart people to be in her house and she chose to teach them. The other founders had their own picks and each taught their own students. So would that mean every house would have their own techniques, spells and skills?

Said Slytherin, "We'll teach just those
Whose ancestry's purest."
Said Ravenclaw, "We'll teach those whose
Intelligence is surest."
Said Gryffindor, "We'll teach all those
With brave deeds to their name,"
Said Hufflepuff, "I'll teach the lot
And treat them just the same."

"For instance, Slytherin
Took only pure-blood wizards
Of great cunning, just like him,
And only those of sharpest mind
Were taught by Ravenclaw
While the bravest and the boldest..."
